As the Lab has grown so has has the range of interest and we are now seeing new meet ups for info exchange and work. In order to make it a bit easier for some of the new interests to meet up we are going to change the Mod Lab to the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of every month. This gives groups a bit more time to meet outside the Lab and creates a standard meet date that we can post on our website with out needing updates. This also gives us a bit more of a standard schedule to book the Lab off for production as we look to the future planning this year.

We are hoping to move our support for audio-visual work to the field and to another space which would leave us free to create some better work areas that could be semi permanent, including a regular space for the Maker Bot. This would make it easier to come in and work on projects and not have to set up and take down everything.
